      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      Consider this simple test program:

        import java.lang.annotation.*;
        import java.lang.reflect.*;
        
        public class AnnotationBug {
        
            @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
            @interface MyAnnotation {
            }
        
            @MyAnnotation
            public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
                Method main = AnnotationBug.class.getMethod("main", String[].class);
                MyAnnotation annotation = main.getAnnotation(MyAnnotation.class);
                InvocationHandler handler = Proxy.getInvocationHandler(annotation);
                assert handler.equals(annotation) == false: "1";
                assert annotation.equals(handler) == false: "2";
            }
        }

      This run with '-ea' option:

        Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AssertionError: 2
                at AnnotationBug.main(AnnotationBug.java:16)
        vimshell: exit 1 "java -ea AnnotationBug"

      The cause is the following code.
      http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/c46daef6edb5/src/share/classes/sun/reflect/annotation/AnnotationInvocationHandler.java#l191

      The code in URL, == operator applied to 'this' instance, but it should apply to proxy that is argument in 'invoke' method.
